As soon as the three days arrived, Xu Yin squatted in the melon field, flicked the best-looking melon with her fingers, and announced: "It's almost over, pick it and eat it!" ”

"Wow!"

Everyone burst into cheers.

Looking forward to more than two months of watermelon, I finally look forward to the ripe melon!

Whether it's in love or playing mahjong, when I heard that the watermelon was ripe, I hula, and all of them came around.

Lu Chenjin took the Swiss Army knife in Xu Yin's hand, and lightly slashed the watermelon skin, only to hear a "click", the watermelon cracked along the crack of the knife, revealing red soil and sweet juice.

"What a strong watermelon smell! It smells so good! ”

"I think you're hungry! Isn't watermelon all this flavor? ”

"It's different! This one smells so much better than what I used to buy and eat! ”

"Needless to say! This is a truly pure ecological sand sweet potato! We spent a lot of time watering, fertilizing, and catching insects...... To be honest, I've never been so attentive to my parents in my life, isn't it just for this bite in the end! ”

"Come, come, come! One piece at a time, one by one! ”

"Dried melon!"

"Dried melon!"

“……”

Everyone laughed while talking, what the hell is dried melon!

After tasting the sweet and juicy watermelon, everyone was full of confidence in the "wild" melon seedlings transplanted in the corner corners, carefully tending and watering them carefully, hoping that they would grow up, mature, and finally enjoy.

When there is hope, the life will be fast.

In a flash, another half a month has passed.

Calculating the time, it should be late autumn and close to early winter.

But the island is still as hot as summer, and the only change is that the rain is getting more abundant.

It's like the rainy season.

It used to rain for ten days and a half months, but now it comes almost every other day, and it's a day and a night.

For a month, there are only a handful of days with clear skies.

Everyone couldn't help but rejoice that they chose to build a house on high ground, either a one-foot high platform or a tree house, and the rainwater quickly flowed away along the slope.

If it is built on a low place, it should be a headache at the moment, and then it must be in close contact with the rain every day.

Like now, when it rains, I take refuge in my own cabin, and it is also pleasant to lie lazily and listen to the sound of the rain when I have nothing to do.

The roof is covered with a few more layers of palm leaves, which generally do not leak.

But when the rain is long, the weather is cold.

In case of a cold, everyone put on all the clothes they can wear, T-shirt over T-shirt, skirt inside pants...... It's a bit nondescript to look at, but it's better than getting sick with a cold.

This made them glad - fortunately they were on a desert island that was not on the equator, but also near the equator, otherwise they would have shivered with cold in the winter without thick clothes, hiding in a wooden hut to keep warm.

After the rainy season came, Xu Yin secretly sowed another crop of vegetable and fruit seeds, which germinated and pumped at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Everyone thought it was strange:

"When I first arrived, I didn't think there were many wild vegetables to eat on this island, why are there so many now?"

"Could it be that we didn't know each other before? Now that I know Xu Yin, it seems that not weeds are vegetables at a glance. What is it called? What is the breadth of knowledge? ”

“…… What you said, I may think of bracken and marantou as grass, but I still don't know cabbage and cabbage? ”

“……”

That's right. Who doesn't know Chinese cabbage? Three-year-old dolls can't do it all.

Xu Yin said, "Have you noticed that there have been fewer seabirds recently?" They may migrate regularly, and when they return, there may be a few more plants on the island that we know or don't know. ”

When they heard this, they thought it made sense: "Maybe they just flew back from other places before we came here." By the way, should we tie a note to the seabird's leg? ”

"That's right! Let them help us get the word out? ”

"I'm going to find a pen and paper! Which of you has clear glue? ”

“……”

Lu Chenjin turned his head to look at his girlfriend, and said in his heart, isn't it because there are people on the island that there are fewer seabirds recently? Always stealing their eggs, not to mention, once Fang Jing and the others even caught a seabird to eat, can they not be scared away?

Xu Yin was inexplicably embarrassed by him, touched her nose and said, "Let's go write a note too!" It's also a way to call for help, isn't it? Maybe it will help. ”

“……”

Well, there are only a few seabirds left, and they are also scared away by these people.

Fang Jing was the first to sneak to the seabird beach, and before he could catch a note tied to the bird's leg, he saw them fluttering their wings and taking off en masse.

Fang Jing was anxious: "Hey! You can fly, wait for me to tie up the note before leaving! ”

Can a seabird not run?

Cooing and cooing, they may be complaining to each other: Isn't this guy the villain who captured our big brother a few days ago? What's up? Do you want to catch us today? Come on!

While cooing and soaring, a few of them took off at a relatively low altitude, and they also pulled the bubble baba on Fang Jing's head before leaving.

Fang Jing's face was dark, but he didn't bother to wipe his baby's hair right now, and ran after him: "Brother! Brother, don't fly! Learn from the ancient flying pigeons, and help me deliver a letter, Brother Bird! Hey, hey, hey! Why run away after pooping, is Lao Tzu a toilet? ”

Although the others also regretted that they couldn't let the seabird give a signal for advice, they saw Fang Jing so embarrassed that they laughed so much that their stomachs hurt.

Emma, that's funny!

"Lao Fang, if you win mahjong today, punish me for pushing you a board inch, right? Your hair is dirty, are you sure you want to keep it? ”

“……”

Fang Jing was so angry that he threw the note into the sea and yelled at the sea: "What is the board inch? Lao Tzu shaved his head directly! ”

"Hahahaha!"

The seabirds won't come back for a short time, and Xu Yin plans to shovel some bird droppings and go back to make manure.

In the past, when seabirds roosted here in flocks, she only dared to sneak a few bird droppings and pick up a few eggs at the edge, but now she can shovel openly.

In the middle, the guano is almost catching up with the reef, hard and thick.

Everybody's here to help.

Director Cheng inspected back and forth and said: "The scenery here is actually quite good, no wonder seabirds choose this place as a habitat." ”

"The sun only shines for half a day, it's warm in the morning and cool in the afternoon, who doesn't like it?"

"Why don't we clean up this place, build a mahjong table, and come here to play mahjong in the future?" Fang Jing proposed, "Listening to the waves playing mahjong, how romantic!" ”

Not to mention, his proposal has won the approval of most people.

Sitting and playing mahjong is definitely more comfortable than sitting cross-legged in a wooden house.

But when I really cleaned it up, I found that there were too many guano here, and I had to clean it up until the Year of the Monkey.

"This bird droppings are all stoned!"

Stone?

Xu Yin's eyes lit up: Isn't the guano of the stone the "guano phosphate mine" mentioned in the book?

There is a small island country that used to make a living by selling guano, but it is this phosphate rock that is actually sold.

Hurriedly stopped: "Don't move the guano of the stones, it has been differentiated into ore, it doesn't smell anymore, let's just clean up the surface." ”
